We can define the consecutive odd integers as:
\n" ); document.write( "x
\n" ); document.write( "x+2
\n" ); document.write( "x+4
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "3x+6 = x+4 + 24
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "3x +6 = x +28
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "2x = 22
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "x = 11
\n" ); document.write( "x+2 = 13
\n" ); document.write( "x+4 = 15
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Check the answer.
\n" ); document.write( "sum = 39
\n" ); document.write( "39 = 15+24
\n" ); document.write( "Correct
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Answer: The three numbers are 11, 13, and 15.
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Done. \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
